Two numbers have a difference of 9 and their product in a minimum.
\n" ); document.write( "Determine the numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "1st: x
\n" ); document.write( "2nd: x-9
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "P(x) = x(x+9) = x^2 - 9x
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Max occurs when x = -b/(2a) = 9/(2*1) = 4.5
\n" ); document.write( "x-9 = 4.5-9 = -4.5
